Ingredients
- ✓120 ml unsalted butter
- ✓120 ml light brown sugar
- ✓60 ml granulated sugar
- ✓1 large egg
- ✓1.5 tsp pure vanilla extract
- ✓360 ml all-purpose flour
- ✓0.5 tsp baking soda
- ✓0.3 tsp fine sea salt
- ✓240 ml semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
1
Preheat oven to 177 °C (175 C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
💡
Tip:Parchment paper prevents hot spots and guarantees an even bake.
2
Whisk melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a large bowl until smooth and glossy.
💡
Tip:Make sure the melted butter is not hot to avoid scrambling the egg in the next step.
3
Whisk in the egg and vanilla extract vigorously for about 1 minute until the mixture slightly thickens.
4
Add the flour, baking soda, and salt, folding with a spatula just until dry pockets disappear.
💡
Tip:Do not overmix once the dry ingredients are added to maintain a tender crumb.
5
Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly dispersed throughout the dough.
💡
Tip:Reserve a few chocolate chips to press onto the tops of dough balls before baking for a bakery look.
6
Scoop 12 equal portions of dough (about 30 ml each) and arrange 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
7
Bake for 9 to 11 minutes until the edges are lightly golden and set while the center remains pale and soft.
💡
Tip:Cookies will look slightly underdone in the center but will finish setting as they cool.
8
Allow cookies to rest on the hot baking sheet for 5 minutes, then move to a wire rack to cool.
📝 Chef's Notes
Store in a sealed container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Keep a slice of plain sandwich bread in the container to maintain maximum softness.
